About us

Safeguard Protective Apparel was created by The Summit Center in Western New York to provide the highest level of protection for staff members working with students with aggressive behaviors. The jacket was borne from a demand for better protection than conventional gear provided our own employees. Martial arts equipment, hockey pads, and baseball gear did not provide adequate protection for our staff who were vulnerable to injuries, at times hindering their ability to do their jobs. A better product was needed to provide better protection.

Safeguard Protective Apparel’s jacket provides the highest quality protection from bites and scratches, allowing our customers as well as our own staff to focus on the needs of their students, no matter the situation. The confidence that you and your team are ready to handle anything, without the worry of serious injury from a bite or scratch, is realized by the protection that Safeguard’s products offer.

SafeGuard’s protective jacket was released April 1, 2016 and is being sold throughout North America.
